Fixtures to take place week commencing August 26

This includes the likes of Everton, Leicester, Newcastle, Nottingham Forest and Wolves.

We will start with the southern section which includes sides like West Ham, Brighton and Bournemouth.

So we now know the 50 teams that will take part in the second round of the Carabao Cup.

With the Premier League season starting this weekend, top flight sides such as Newcastle, Everton and West Ham will be hoping for comfortable second round draws at this early stage of the season.

But they don't have long to wait to discover their fate, as the draw will take place at some point in the next 15 minutes.

Great wins for Middlesbrough and Plymouth with convincing 3-0 victories over Leeds United and Cheltenham respectively.

Middlesbrough were ruthless in the second half at Elland Road with Anfernee Dijksteel, Delano Burgzorg and Josh Coburn scoring in the space of 17 minutes.

Wayne Rooney's Plymouth side advanced after goals from Ben Waine, Ryan Hardie and Mustapha Bundu.

All the action came in the first 10 minutes of Hull's clash with Sheffield Wednesday, but a brace from Charlie McNeill has sent the Owls through to the next round with a 2-1 win.

At this stage the Carabao Cup is still regionalised, so sides will be drawn in northern and southern sections.

This is to make it easier for fans to get to games.

So no need to worry Newcastle and Plymouth fans over the prospect of a 840-mile round trip just yet!

The seven Premier League sides that are not entering the tournament are those who are participating in European competitions this season.

Champions League sides Man City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Aston Villa will join the party in the third round.

As will Manchester United and Tottenham who are in the Europa League, and Chelsea in the Europa Conference League.

There are three first round fixtures taking place this evening. The most notable scoreline so far is that at Elland Road where Leeds are being thumped by Middlesbrough.

Wayne Rooney's Plymouth also set to pick up an impressive victory.

• Hull City 1-2 Sheffield Wednesday - 88 mins
